Professional skateboarder Rob Dyrdek teamed up with Ken Block to film this funny take on Ken’s Gymkhana practice videos.

Where in the world do I get a mini go-kart like Rob’s? That looks so fun to drive!

This is so weird. It’s definitely making me think of the uncanny valley hypothesis…

Anyway, Thomas and Janet above are theatrical robots in Taiwan’s Phantom Of The Opera play.

Ken Block: GYMKHANA TWO

I’ve posted a video of Ken Block doing a gymkhana practice before and here’s a brand-new video from his sponsor, DC Shoes. Like before, Ken Block drives like a maniac without any mistakes. If there’s one video to watch in HD, it’s got to be this one. Seriously, it’s amazing.

Ken Block gymkhana practice

You’ve all seen Ken Block before when he drove his Subaru on top of the mountain right alongside snowboarders, and from that you knew he was a good driver. But wait until you watch this video above of him doing a gymkhana practice run.

Gymkhana is a motorsport that is sort of like a rally obstacle course that tests drivers skill and stamina. Ken Block is more than able to handle the course and he shows some excellent drifting abilities in this video. Pretty amazing, I think.
